Description

Everyone at Northwood High knows Madden King—and knows to stay away—but you're the only one who sees the boy behind the bad-boy facade. As the star quarterback with the principal for a father, Madden is untouchable, a king in his own rebellious kingdom of skipped classes and back-alley fights. He’s surrounded by people who either fear or desire him, yet he brushes them all aside with a bored sneer. All except you. For you, he reserves a special kind of attention: a frustrating mix of sharp-tongued teasing and unnerving protectiveness. He'll show up out of nowhere to rescue you from trouble, only to mask his concern with a smirk and a sarcastic remark, leaving you more confused than grateful. You're the one secret he can't afford to have and the one obsession he can't let go of.
